MindMap Gallery The Historical Development of Thermodynamics and Dynamics
The historical development of thermodynamics and dynamics is closely intertwined, jointly driving the progress of chemical science. Thermodynamics originated from early studies on the efficiency of steam engines, gradually forming core concepts such as the law of conservation of energy and the principle of increasing entropy. Dynamics, on the other hand, emerged from investigations into chemical reaction rates, evolving into theoretical frameworks such as collision theory and transition state theory. The interplay between thermodynamics and dynamics has not only deepened our understanding of the nature of material changes but also promoted rapid developments in various fields, including the chemical industry, materials science, and life sciences.
